It's insane how many people confuse automation with AI. Autopilot is not AI. Computers are not AI. Even LLMs are not a full general AI. They're language models and very badly suited to handling novel live situations like ATC.

    True, Ai doesn't really exist at the moment. It is a buzzword a lot of companies are fuzzing the definition of to get it into their marketing / pr releases. Let's see details on what they are claiming is Ai and they are using it before forming strong opinions.
